Focus areas
The Zenex Foundation has three core focus areas through which it carries out work :
Early Grade Language and Mathematics
Builds reading and numeracy teaching expertise at a critical entry point in the schooling system – the Foundation Phase.
Senior Phase English and Mathematics
Remediates mathematics and language backlogs at the point of entry to high school.
Underpinning all our work is Research, Monitoring & Evaluation to ensure that evidence informs our work and also contributes to knowledge development in the education sector
